Preventive Care Clinical Trial
Official title:
The Personal Health Care Partner Project, Conversational IT for Better, Safer Pediatric Primary Care
Interactive telephony technologies offer a potentially highly effective, patient-centered communication modality by guiding parents at home through interactive discussions that can gather information and actively reinforce recommendations and treatments. Interactive telephony systems are particularly well suited for use in vulnerable populations since access to the telephone is nearly universal, and the system does not rely on reading printed text. The investigators propose to develop and evaluate an integrated patient-centered health information system, the Personal Health Partner (PHP). The PHP will use fully automated, interactive, conversations to gather personal health data and counsel parents before scheduled visits, exchange that data with the child's primary care clinician via the electronic health record (EHR), and offer personalized follow-up assessment and counseling after visits. The information technology-based approach to be evaluated in this project will link parents and children outside the clinical setting with their primary care center and will offer comprehensive assessments AND counseling to reinforce and support parental behavior change.
A large gap exists between what is recommended for effective primary care of children and
what actually takes place in pediatric primary care settings, especially in the areas of
preventive care. Furthermore, although medication management (safety and effectiveness)
issues have emerged as an important factor for children, little is known about how
medication is actually used by families at home.
With growing use of the electronic health record (EHR) come new opportunities to link
patient-centered information with clinical health information systems. Linkage of these
systems has the potential to inform and activate parents, provide much richer data to drive
decision support at the point-of-care, and to provide ongoing support for long-term behavior
change following primary care visits. The use of conversational technologies as the
foundation for the project offers a number of unique advantages especially the support of
lower-literacy populations and near-universal access. Systems like the Personal Health
Partner (PHP) represent a model for the future of ambulatory care and the sustainable,
affordable delivery of higher quality and safer care by primary care clinicians in the
future.
